Lord! I believe; Thy power I own Thy word I would obey; I wander comfortless and lone, When from Thy truth I stray. Lord! I believe; but gloomy fears Sometimes bedim my sight; I look to Thee with prayers and tears, And cry for strength and light. Lord! I believe; but oft, I know, My faith is cold and weak; Make strong my weakness, and bestow The confidence I seek! Yes, I believe; and only Thou Canst give my soul relief; Lord! to Thy truth my spirit bow, Help Thou my unbelief!
